Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jermaine Kearse has a simple request for the unwashed masses clamoring for his attention: Stop calling him Jerome.
I know this doesn’t relate to everyone but if you come up to me in public or any place, can you please stop callin me Jerome

Is it possible that many are mistaking Kearse for the late, great Jerome Kersey? If so, it's unacceptable, as the appropriate mistake would be to call him Jevon, as in Jevon "The Freak" Kearse.
Come on, people.
Other notable Jermain(e)s include:
- Jermaine Dupri
- Jermaine Jackson
- Jermaine O'Neal
- Jermain Defoe
Furthermore, Jermaine Jackson's son is named Jermajesty. Do not call Jermaine Kearse, Jermajesty. Don't do it.
